outdoor plants not flowering?!!?

Ok. I have 6 plants outdoors. They are very healthy and doing well.


Originally there were 8 plants, two weeks ago i pulled out two males. The rest have showed no signs of flowering

5 of them are bagseed, one is a seedsman WW clone.

I'm at 41 degrees latitude. I am scared as we are having a decently cold climate this year and im afriad they are going to enter flowering way too late (it seems like if they haven't kicked over, im already screwed)

Btw, all the plants are around 5ft tall, very healthy, and all are still growing vigorously.

Wow, you're pretty far north not to be showing yet cause the days are getting shorter pretty quickly now, but all strains, plants even, are different. I'm sure they will show soon, and being in SoCal I have no idea about cold weather stuff... lol Good luck.

Yeah, I'm really confused.


I'm scared. This is seriously the coldest weaher i've ever experienced in august. We've already dipped into the 40's!

im on the same boat man-im growing ww, and im seeing jus a few pre flowers, nothing big.In september, the weather is pretty bad and i dunno if my plant will make it.

I'm going to hit them with some flowering nutes today...

I bet its pretty smokey down there huh......

Anyone have any ideas? This sucks.

they may be sativa, cause im on the 46 and i've had preflowers for about two weeks now, sativas take alot longer. may I say always buy seeds that will flower on your latitude, I know im a newbie also but I have witnessed this fine art at a friends when I lived with him for two years so I know a little bit, read a few books lol. BUY SEEDS that way your results are guarenteed. I bought 4 strains that finish at my lat.

I think that may be the correct answer. All of my other gardens are doing great. These are bag seeds (probably from mexico).


well here's hoping they finish before the frost comes!

LOL for sure sativa if they came from mexico, you probably wont get nothing but giv'er and see if they finish.





A knowledgeable gardener is a happy

I got some high phosphorous guano today.. gonna top the soil real good and hope it pushes flowering along.

If your plants are not budding you might have to bring them indoors as soon as it gets into the lower 30s.I live in Tennessee and heres my pictures from last night,Aug 31st.These were started in feb. and moved outside in april.I have had some stains start flowering late an finish hard and fast depending on your strains

That's exactly what i was looking for.

I'm in full blown confusion mode on these plants. I cannot for the life of me figure out why they are not flowering.

Lets pray for the weather to stay above freezing until early november... I'm skeptical about getting much off of these plants at this point. they're rooted in pretty good and most are 5-6' tall.

Where did you get your beans and next time only plant early Indicas if possible.I can grow early flowering sativas here but I dont know how far north you are

Where did your beans come from? If bagseed what did the weed look like

I grow from bagseed and i have a few sativa doms. They are just now flowering where the others are budding well. Because this was such a cold summer (so way mega pissed) my harvest was pushed back a month. I have started bringing my girls in at 8pm and putting them back out at 8am. I am very concerned that the weather will fuck over my harvest even more than it has. Im hoping to start in about 2 weeks, but that might not happen. Its good to hear that im not alone in my concerns and that there are others here with more experience who can help.

Dont put that guano on untill you show sex and you do know that plants still need nitrogen during flowering stage,thats why I use Jamaican guano and tiger bloom from fox farm, both have small amounts of nitrogen.The only thing that speeds up flowering is reduction of daylight not nutrients I used to grow columbian in the 70s and 80s outside and it never finished but what we did get was great smoke.Then in the early 80s came hybrids ,me and my brother in law got 50lb of trimmed buds in 1984 .I could not do it again in a million years(most of the early fishing strains in the 80s came from Afghanastan roots)Dont get crazy yet, if thier not budding in two weeks then you can start to worry

I am in Michigan and still have two plants with not even preflowers. I am just going to leave them out until they die, and then harvest. Here are pics, its a shame I may have to pick so premature.
